Chapter 29 : Yu Ling’er Faints from Heartbreak

Yu Ling’er was already in tears. In the scene, Ye Xuan, unaware of her state, continued conversing with Beidou Star Lord.

“Heh… is this your choice? It’s somewhat unexpected,” Beidou Star Lord chuckled after hearing Ye Xuan’s refusal and continued, “What is love in this world? It leads people to life and death commitments. You don’t regret sacrificing your life for Yu Ling’er, but have you forgotten? After her rebirth, she will still love Yu Shou. He won’t become the upright gentleman you hope for. The outcome remains uncertain.”

“I understand,” Ye Xuan replied. “If the Star Lord is willing to grant me an immortal spiritual root, may I request instead that you change Yu Shou’s fate, ensuring he can no longer commit evil deeds?”

“It’s possible,” Beidou Star Lord stated. “Altering someone’s path is a trivial matter for me, as long as it doesn’t involve changing their heart. But remember, I can stop one person’s evil, not the evil of the entire world.”

“Thank you, Star Lord,” Ye Xuan said, a trace of a dry smile on his face. He murmured, “If there truly is a rebirth, in my next life, I hope I won’t be as devoted as I am in this one… Falling for someone wholeheartedly is such painful business. If I could love someone else, perhaps I wouldn’t be this miserable, and my ending wouldn’t be so tragic… Yet, the irony is, it’s all my own doing…”

As he spoke, a tear rolled down Ye Xuan’s cheek. “Fortunately, though I fall in love with her at first sight, in the next life, I’ll probably give up on these feelings the moment she looks at me with hostility. So, my next life won’t end as bitterly as this one, dying by her hand won’t be as painful…”

A single tear drop fell, echoing like a droplet in a deep abyss, resonating with his pain. From that moment on, Ye Xuan’s suffering would be known to no one but Beidou Star Lord, who witnessed a man named Ye Xuan give everything for Yu Ling’er…

Fate twisted at that moment. Everything that happened, all the injustices Ye Xuan faced, became undeniable truths due to Yu Ling’er’s rebirth. In her mind, Ye Xuan was an unforgivable sinner. She missed every chance to learn the truth, and her first instinct after rebirth was to unhesitatingly kill the man who had loved her to his bones.

The scene showed reborn Yu Ling’er looking at Ye Xuan with hatred, her lips curled in disdain and triumph, while Ye Xuan’s expression was filled with confusion, not understanding why the girl he fell for at first sight looked at him as if she wanted him dead.

“——!!!” As the scene faded away into darkness, Yu Ling’er was surrounded by the same blackness, her heart reaching the pinnacle of desolation. The feeling was like ice piercing her heart, and she too felt its chilling embrace. Her tears kept falling in the dark void.

Perhaps, this was how Ye Xuan felt facing me before. But compared to that, my sadness is merely out of guilt, while he was genuinely heartbroken by my actions. How can these two feelings even compare? I can probably never fully comprehend the depth of sorrow he chose to self-destruct with.

“Originally, as a deity, I prefer not to intervene too much in mortal affairs,” a voice echoed in Yu Ling’er’s mind amidst the endless darkness.

It was the voice of Beidou Star Lord. “But seeing Ye Xuan’s rare devotion towards you, I made an exception to enlighten you. Cherish that pure and passionate heart; it wasn’t a waste of my divine power. Go save him, he’s about to die.”

With this reminder from Beidou Star Lord, Yu Ling’er suddenly realized she was about to return to reality. She quickly dried her tears and looked determined. Now wasn’t the time for sorrow and crying; Ye Xuan was on the brink of death by her own hands.

The next moment, the world of darkness began to dissipate, and the scene of Qingyan Peak’s rear mountain reappeared before her eyes. There was Ye Xuan, transformed into an ice sculpture right in front of her. The ice sealing technique was at its final step. With just one thought from Yu Ling’er, Ye Xuan would turn into ice shards, his body dissipating and his soul scattering.

“——!!!” Seeing this, Yu Ling’er couldn’t delay any longer. She quickly activated her spiritual Qi, transforming it into a curse-breaking technique and casting it towards the ice sculpture. The next moment, the ice around Ye Xuan shattered, and he gradually regained his human form. As the ice thawed, Ye Xuan’s eyes slowly opened.

“Thank goodness, Ye Xuan… you’re not…” Seeing that Ye Xuan wasn’t harmed by her ice sealing curse, Yu Ling’er was overjoyed. She was about to greet him and even impulsively thought of rushing towards him. But then, she stopped dead in her tracks.

Because at that moment, Ye Xuan was looking at her with an extremely cold gaze. That gaze… it was terrifying. It was so cold that it made one’s heart chill, despite Yu Ling’er’s own advanced cultivation level. He wasn’t showing hatred towards her, but his gaze, colder than her previous hateful look towards him, was far more terrifying.

“…” At that moment, facing Ye Xuan’s gaze, Yu Ling’er felt a bone-chilling cold. She didn’t know what to say. She knew she owed Ye Xuan a lot and needed to repay him. But… at that moment, facing his gaze, she actually felt scared. She would rather have him look at her with hatred than with such indifferent eyes.

Could it be… as Ye Xuan said, he fell in love with her at first sight. But because she irrationally despised him and wanted to kill him when they first met, he could see her intent in her eyes and had completely given up his love for her?!!!

Oh my god—!!! At that moment, Yu Ling’er felt dizzy and disoriented. So… after rebirth, not only did she hurt Ye Xuan again, but she also hurt him again with the love he had for her?!! Being suddenly despised by someone isn’t too heartbreaking. But being suddenly despised unreasonably and disdainfully by someone you love… everyone probably understands how that feels.

She had once again deeply wounded Ye Xuan’s heart. Thinking about this, Yu Ling’er felt her breath become chaotic, a stifling sensation rushed to her head, and she could no longer hold on and fainted.

“Uh…” Seeing Yu Ling’er faint, Ye Xuan was completely speechless. Was it really that dramatic? He was just trying to act a bit more convincingly. Being looked at with such a gaze after she tried to kill him seemed quite normal, right? Yu Ling’er should have been mentally prepared for this sort of reaction.

Unexpectedly, Yu Ling’er, who once ascended to immortality, couldn’t even withstand this small shock. Was it because his acting was too convincing? Perhaps it’s understandable, considering if he were locked in a dark room forced to watch melodramatic, tragic dramas without looking away, he too might have succumbed to the emotional intensity. But now, with her fainting, what was he supposed to do?

“Mama mia… It’s so cold, I could freeze to death. Where is the system reward already?!!”
